Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apt-file
If you try to limit your search to just files and directories which
begin with "ext2" (excluding, in theory, any "ext2" in the root
directory, but there is no such directory in any regular package
anyway), apt-file should not ignore this and display all matches which
contain "ext2" anywhere in them.
This is on a pretty vanilla Gutsy system:
vnix$ apt-file search /ext2 | head
autofs: usr/lib/autofs/mount_ext2.so
autofs: usr/lib/autofs/mount_ext2.so
autofs: usr/lib/autofs/mount_ext2.so
awesfx: usr/bin/text2sf
awesfx: usr/bin/text2sf
awesfx: usr/bin/text2sf
cmucl-source: usr/share/common-lisp/source/cmucl-hemlock/htext2.lisp
cmucl-source: usr/share/common-lisp/source/cmucl-hemlock/htext2.lisp
cmucl-source: usr/share/common-lisp/source/cmucl-hemlock/htext2.lisp
cmucl-source: usr/share/common-lisp/source/cmucl/hemlock/htext2.lisp
(Obviously, bug #174134 is also at play here.)
